This handsome chap is Johann I Joseph, Prince of Liechtenstein, commander of the Cavalry Corps at Aspern.
He was a prominent Austrian cavalry commander during the Napoleonic Wars. He served with distinction in various campaigns, notably at the Battle of Austerlitz and later as commander of the I Reserve Korps during the War of the Fifth Coalition. He earned the rank of General of Cavalry in 1808 and was promoted to Feld-marschall in 1809.
I have nearly finished the Reserve Cavalry Corps and have organized the command structure. Brigades are commanded by two figures, a division has four and the senior command has six.
I have used the Art Miniturian figures which whilst chunky compared to their printed comrades, do have a charm of their own. Lots to do. Chris |

Chunky works for cuirassiers! So much to like here and the more senior the rank the better they look. But the spiral flag poles must take the first prize |
